CarolinaMBZ,
They did test a euro model at an earlier date. It is mentioned in the article (I do not have the magazine with me at this moment) I may have to look for that magazine too. There were a lot of R & T from different years, most of them almost mint. I do not have a scanner.
The article is about 3-4 pages long but the pictures are black and white .
I am very happy with my purchase.
